The defender of the Israel national team, Eli Dassa, broadcast throughout the summer that he wants to find a new team in Europe after his good seasons in Vitesse Arnhem, but so far the offers he has received have not satisfied him professionally and financially and now it seems that he is approaching a comeback to the ranks of the former Maccabi Tel Aviv.
The Yellows have been in talks with the defender for a long time and at first there were big differences between the parties, but now Maccabi has offered the player a contract estimated by various sources at around 650 thousand euros per season, which will make him the highest paid Israeli in the Premier League after Eran Zahavi.
An official with the details said: "He has an incredible offer from Maccabi Tel Aviv. I don't think in recent years there has been an Israeli player who has come close to the numbers that Maccabi are offering to Desa."

It is also possible that the Yellows know that in light of the security situation it will be more difficult for them to sign foreign players, so they also decided to improve the offer to Desa.
The parties are supposed to meet after Tisha B'Av.
Besides Desa, midfielder Dor Peretz, who decided to return to Israel in recent days, after receiving an offer of 550,000 euros, should officially sign with the team during the week.
Also, due to the security situation in the country, the Yellows may advance their flight to Thessaloniki.
